ROBERT GOOD, OF POUGHKEEPSIE, `NEW YORK, AND ROBERT GOOD, JR.,

OF VALVERDE, COLORADO.

MACHINE FOR MAKING GLASS VESSELS.

i SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 626,464, dated June 6,1899. i Application filed September 15, 1898. Serial No. 691,057. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom, t may/concern:

Beit known that \ve,ROBERT` GO'OD,resi ;ling at Poughkeepsie, in the countyof Dutchess, State of New York, and ROBERT GOOD, J r.,

residing at Valverde, in the county of Arapa-t hoe and State of Colorado, citizens of the United States, have invented new and useful Improvements in Machines for Making Glass Vessels, of which the following is a specificaro tion.

Our invention relates to certain novel improvements in the machineryemployed in the manufacture of glass vessels, and is more particularly designed as an improvement upon x5 Letters Patent No. 585,469, granted to us June 29, 1897; and the object is to increase the capacity by improvingI the details of construction.

To this end the invention consists in the zo construction, combination, and arrangement of the several parts of the device, as will be hereinafter more fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims. Y

The accompanying drawings show our invention in the best form now known to us; but many changes in the details might be made within the skill of a good mechanic withoutfleparting from the spiritof our invention as set forth in the claims at the end ofv this 3o specification.

In the drawings the same reference characters indicate the same parts of the invention.

Figure lis a perspective view of our improved machine with the finishing-mold closed 3 5 and the bottom up. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the finishing-mold open and the bottom section lowered. Fig. 3 is a side elevation. Fig. 4 is a transverse vertical section. Fig. 5 is a horizontal section.

1 denotes the table-bed supported on the usual legs, and it is formed with a central oritice 2 and with quadrilaterally-arranged rails 3 and 4, fixed to its upper face.

5 5 denote the parison-molds traveling on the alined rails 3 3, and 6 6' the finishingmolds traveling on the alined rails 4 4.

7, 8, 9, and l0 represent a series of bellcrank levers fulcrumed on the stud-bolts 11 l1 l1 ll, the opposite ends of the lever 7 being in operative connection with the moldl` sections 5 and 6', the lever 8 correspondingly connected to the sections 5 and 6, the lever 9 similarly connected tothe sections Gand 5', and the lever 10 connecting the sections 5 and G', the arrangement being such that as the levers are moved simultaneously in one direction theywll cause the parison mold y sections to travel toward each other while the finishing-mold sections travel inthe reverse direction or away from each other, andvice versa, when said bell-crank levers are moved in the Opposite direction to that above described the parison-mold sections recede and the finishing-mold sections travel toward each other. These movements may be attained by hand or by any suitable gearing power or leverage, one system of which is shown in the drawings; but we do not wish to limit ourselves to any particular means for accomplishing this object, as it is evident that various ways will readily suggest themselves for this purpose.

12 represents the bottom section mold, which is pivoted to the upper end of a vertical rod 13, reciprocating in a guidebracket 14, fixed to the table. 15 represents a vertical arm fixed to said bracket and having its upper end projecting into the path of the free end of the bottom section to tilt it forward when the bottom section is lowered, so that the finished article may be readily removed, as shown in Fig. 4.

16 denotes the press-head, which has avertical movement in the parallel standards 17 17, arising from the table, and it carries a vertical hollow plunger 18, .which axially registers with the mold, and these parts may be reciprocated by power or by a hand-lever, as shown. However, We do not intend to restrict ourselves to a vertically-reciprocating press-head or any particular means for operating it, as we have found in practice that a horizontally-reciprocating head will take up less room and answer every purpose.

The operation is as follows: The parisonmold sections are brought together and the press-head removed, so that a suitable amount of hot glass maybe introduced into the mold and the press-head (which also carries the neck-mold' and follower-ring) brought into of the IOC) forced up into the neck-mold topform the neck The plunger is now raised a of thevessel. suitabledistance and the parison-sections separated and theiinishingfmolds.closed Iin aroiudlthe partially-formed vessel and the bottom raised to register with them, and a current of air under'pressure is forced through the hollow plunger, which causes the` glass to g the combination with al three-part finishingconform to the mold. p. After theV glass has set i 'or-congealed the finishing-molds and press-v head are separated and the bottom section,

von which the nished vesselrests, islowered and tilted forward to: facilitate its removal. As Athe bottom is lowered with the finished l vesselA the' sections of the parison-lnold are brought together to be readyv for another Thusl while a jar is being delivered the' nextcharge is putin, and so the yiha'chine made' to workcontinuously, no stop being necessary to remove the jar.

Having thus fully described our invention i what we claim, anddesire/to` secure by' Letters Patent, s'

1.,-In a machine for forming glass vessels,

'the combination with fthe su pporting-table having the central oriice,vthe series of guide-y rails arranged at right angles across the face of said table, the parison and the finishin g mold sections adapted to travel in opposite directions on said guide-rails;. of the bottom moldsection, and means for causing said bottom mold-section to travel through said central orifice in the table, to and from said finishing-mold sections, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

2; In a machine for forming glass vessels, the supporting-table having the central orifice, the series of guide-rails arranged at right angles across the face thereof, the parison ing-mold sections, substantially as andfor the purpose set forth. i.

3. In ay machine for forming glass vessels,

mold comprising the two laterally and the g bottom vertically reciprocating sections, of a two-.part parison-movld arranged to reciprocate at right angles tothe path of said finishing-mold sections, substantially as set forth.

4. In a machine for vforming glass Vessels, the supporting-'table having the central orifice, theseriesof guide-rails mounted at right anglesl across-the face thereof, the parison and the finishing mold sectionsl mounted thereon, the bottom mold-section adapted to travell to and from the path of said parison and finishing mold sections, andmeans for simultaneously movingsaid parison and iinishing mold sections in opposite directions,`

and a reciprocating press-head adapted to travel to and froml said parison and finishing mold sections, substantially as set forth for the purpose described.'

In testimony whereofwe have hereunto set our hands in the presence of the subscribing witnesses.
